Hi Blogger
Where did the church come from?
Jesus said: "...I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it." Matthew 16:18
> Here we see that Jesus promises that he will continue to 'build' the community he called to himself.
> The surprising thing is that he builds it not by giving the church more power... but by dying for the church on the cross.
> It is because he died for the church that it is eternally protected from the powers that aimed to destroy it.
Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, you built your church by sacrificing yourself. I pray that you will help me to do the same. Protect me from building a religion that wants more power but rather help me to build a community of relationships with more to give. Amen
Another Prayer point:
Please pray for our outreach event: Carols by Candlelight on 12 December at the Hilton Hotel in Rotherhithe Street.
We need help with:
- 8 people to give out leaflets and posters around Canada Water
- 3 people to welcome people on the evening and give out Orders of Service
- 3 people to serve mulled wine and mince pies after the service
- at least 10 people to sing in the music group
- 4 people to decorate the hall with Christmas decorations before the
- 1 person to do the overhead projector / video
- 20 people to donate towards a £500 goal. An employee of a bank will top it up to £500 and his employer will match our giving up to £500 = giving us the £1000 we need!
- Daily Prayer for the event
If you were able to help or want any information, please send an email to Helentje at: Helen.Cloete@elrbbcjv.co.uk
